(via INTO THE WOODS)
Into the woods, I flee,
Yearning to be set free.
I don’t know which way to go.
I turn around, to and fro.
A light shines between the trees.
I peek between the thick leaves.
No one is along the path.
I can do the simple math.
It’s him against me.
I’ll never be free.
MEET ME IN MAINE
(via TAKE IT TO THE LIMIT)
Take the night to the limit,
The road to its end,
The sun to its setting.
Allow no stone unturned,
No drama incomplete,
No sentence unwritten.
Take the road to the limit,
To a future yet to happen,
To times better spent.
Raise a glass to adventure,
A smile to the road taken,
Leaving no road untaken.

(via BY THE SEA)
Come with me to the pool by the sea. Oasis is the best place to be. Relax by the pool or sit at the bar. Tourists visit this place from near and far.
I think I’ll take a dip in the pool. I am definitely not a fool. I’d never pass up a chance for fun Or a tan in the Florida sun.
Wait. Come and look over here. I found a book on the chair. A small town is a beautiful place. I see the stunned look on your face.
Oasis Hotel resembles this one. But it isn’t always fun in the sun. It is a haven for The Dead. Is the heat going to your head?
The sky is turning dark. Shadows appear in the park. What’s that standing behind you? It’s not one shadow, but two.
More shadows come ashore. I will not wait for more. Our destiny seems to be in this book. I’m leaving now without a second look.

(via SING ME A SONG)
Sing me a love song.
Rhyme me a sad tale.
The woe of heartbroken lovers
whose tinny cries take to the air.
The needle rides the grooves.
Round in a circle, it goes.
No beginning or end.
Like a tear that refuses to fall.
A song without an end.
The melody echoes through eternity.
One jump and scratch at a time.
(via OUR SPECIAL PLACE)
When the music plays,
And your body sways,
Let my arms hold you,
And my body spoons you.
We’ll sashay to our own beat
And let the town fall at our feet.
As the demons fall from grace,
This remains our special place.
PREY FOR THE DEAD

(via THE SEA RUNS RED)
At the end of the journey,
where the sea runs red,
the nights grow long,
dark shadows roam free,
and The Dead come to play.
THE DEAD GAME SERIES

(via DANCE WITH ME)
Dance with me until the moon hides its face, And the sun attempts to quicken the pace. From the sunlight, the vampire turns his face, And dancers twirl to the light’s frenzied pace.
PREY FOR THE DEAD by Susanne Leist
(via UNMASKED)
Remove your mask.
Show your face. Let the domino fall.
Let it shatter to pieces.
I want to see the man
Beneath the disguise.
PREY FOR THE DEAD
(via THE DEAD GAME)
I am thrilled my first book, THE DEAD GAME, is still finding new readers & reviews.
Thank you.
(via HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL)
The sun will shine again.
You will stroll with a friend.
Colorful flowers will take bloom.
Normality will be back soon.
(via CHOICES)
Confused I may be,
I can’t set him free.
He has me in his thrall,
but I refuse to fall.
After I shut my eyes for the night,
it’s his face I see in the dim light.
THE DEAD GAME
(via TIME STANDS STILL)
The Dead arrive
in the dark of night.
Time stands still.
Birds take flight.
I’ve had my fill
of demons in the night.
THE DEAD GAME
(via SILENCE REIGNS SUPREME)
Silence reigns supreme.
The sun hides its face.
Palm trees shake their leaves.
Winds quicken their pace.
The hotel stands deserted.
Flapping sounds fill the air.
Dark shadows join the fray
beneath his icy stare.
THE DEAD GAME

(via PREY FOR THE DEAD)
The sand is soft beneath my feet.
I’m sure I’ve found a pleasant treat.
A metal door swipes across the sky,
removing the sun from the blue sky.
Trapped in a replica of my town,
I watch the sand become dark brown.
My longed-for peace won’t be won
since I’ve trusted the wrong one.
